Gamemode: Frontlines

A gamemode featuring a longer map conquest that would also mean longer gameplay. Basically… “Realistic Battles”.

About the gamemode:
There are no locked attackers or defenders. Both sides have (let’s say) 300 reinforces at start. There would be a total of 5 territories. 2 for the Allies, 2 for the Axis and 1 is the battlefield.
If the Allies manage to beat those 300 reinforces, they will advance through the territory they are fighting on, meantime the Axis are called back to retreat. Now one side has 3 territories under control. If the Axis manage to beat the allies with their 300 personel, the Allies would be called back for a retreat, letting the Axis take their territory back. The only way to win this gamemode would be for one side to control all 5 territories, meaning defeating the oppenent’s 300 personel 3 times in a row without losing.

It’d be something like controlling zones, except you could only battle for 1 zone at a time and if you take over that zone, the enemy can still take it back by depleting your reinforces. So… a conquest gamemode that goes back and forth. Very similiar to what they did in Verdun (game).

P.S.: Those are territories, lands and not points teams have to conquer. It’s like… the normal Dominative gamemode, except you have to conquer parts of the maps, and you can lose them back. Only one territory can be conquered at a time, spawning the whole forces from the behind lines. More of a trench-warfare like conquest.

That game mode would be great in the Stalingrad campaign. I think it would give enough immersion.

Actually… that’s right! Stalingrad campaign with this gamemode would be for sure the most loved.

Basically a BF style large conquest correct ? Im in for this, im getting bored with the invasion game mode and normal conquest which you rarely get, is linear

Point B always to the point B

Haven’t played BF, so I can’t tell for sure. But it’d be somewhat like a real life “Land Conquer”.

Something like this:

The gamemode in bf is similar to what you wrote . The only diffence is the last point was destruction . ( You had to blow up the heay artillery cannons)

I see, and to be honest, that destruction on the end would be amazing too. I could imagine that on Normandy just like in Call of Duty II, except… Germans could push the Americans back.

I would think maneuver from Tannenberg would work good as well

Would this be a sector control type point or just a flag area in the sector?

would love to see this happen! and its a “easy” concept, nothing complex here.

Simple but still great gameplay, great Idea.

"P.S.: Those are territories, lands and not points teams have to conquer. " It’s written. Those are territories, no flag or points to take.
